I know that WUHU_Tweet does something similar, but I'm hoping to not have to build an outside application.

Thanks.

Can you be more specific about the METAR results ? The observation data that you input is output to the currdat.lst file and they are available for templates.

Can you be more specific about the "METAR results"?

The observation data that you input is output to the currdat.lst file and they are available for templates.

Perhaps you are talking about other METAR data?

I use VB.NET, as well, but all of my METAR scripts are on a Linux server so PHP is the native script of choice. :) It also allows for easier uploads to the MySQL server.
